What is ABA?

ABA, short for Anime Battle Arena, is a Roblox arena fighting game created by Dogs Studios: South. Players choose fighters with individual movesets and battle using basic attacks, aerial attacks, special abilities, defensive movement and transformations.

Combat rewards much more than button mashing. Learning M1 strings, aerial routes, blocking, dodging, combo extensions and each opponent's abilities becomes increasingly important as you move from casual Arena matches into Ranked play.
